Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Abermenai Point from Belan Beach The old ruined building on the spit was the store for explosives imported into Caernarfon for use in the quarries. Ships carrying explosives were not allowed into the port and had to discharge at Abermenai. Small quantities of nitro-glycerine were brought to the Caernarfonshire side of the Straits by rowing boat and then carted to the quarries. On one occasion, in 1864, a cart load of explosives exploded near Llyn Padarn. SH5562
